*V2*
(recorded in ‘december 2006’)
(a ‘medley’ running 17:24)
(posted ‘9 august 2011’)
MEDLEY:
“hump day (intro)”
“game over” (early mix?)
“harvard square” (rough early mix)
“noodling on grandma skip’s organ”
(and she actually gave me a compliment: “you’re making up songs already”)
(a burst of the synth line that opens ‘fruit salad’)
(instead of criticizing my (admittedly subpar) piano playing))
(“ala daddy dearest”)
(maybe he was trying to help and unconsciously did me a favor)
(if i had gotten decent at piano, there would be a good chance ida become a “piano-playing investment banker”)
(lke that “peter” geek)
“ends with intro synth blast of “fruit”
“iona”
“beginner’s luck”
“i know”
“harvard hop (v1)”
(live @ ‘the underscore’)
(a duo with riff on drums)
(august 2009)
(sounds subpar to my ears)
(but hey, what do i know?)
(“a lot sir” says my ‘faggy assistant’)
“mayday”
“harvard hop (v1)”
(same underscore performance as “harvard hop (v1)”)
“time to play the game!”
(2009 mix)
“shabby day (v1)”
(same underscore performance as “harvard hop (v1)” and “harvard hop (v2)”)
“brotherly love”
(“hidden in a homemade forest…”)
“harvard hop (outro)”
(same underscore performance “that produced” “harvard hop (v1)” and “harvard hop (v2)”)

(originally released on 2009 album “dinosaurs”)
baby ruth dug the track…
(though he misheard the intro)
“i’m tired of waiting…my energy’s fading…”
(the old man also liked the intro)
the TAXI reviewer admired the falsetto vocal range in the intro
(though it sometime seemed ‘a bit out-of-control’)
a british reviewer criticized the verses as ‘witless ween wailing’…
(ween was american alternative rock band from new hope PA)
(formed in 1984)
but he was thrilled by the space rock outro that ‘came out of nowhere’…
(bergblum and dyke van larnald also dug the outro)
(bandcamp page:)
(track #10 on ‘ministry of illusion’)
